A few nights in Barcelona
This was an ideal alternative to booking a twin room. We had separate rooms and a kitchen etc. Location was a little outside the centre but with good transport links and everything was walkable as well. Staff were really helpful the whole time we were there. Would recommend staying here to anyone.

The people were friendly, not much help getting luggage into the building from a hard to access front door. Not easy to find the location.

I liked it was a quiet room, it was clean, I felt that the staff was inappropriately talking about me, I felt that was unprofessional. and I overheard that. II thought it was a nice place. The daily waitress for breakfast was really friendly and nice.

the property is a very old building that has been repainted - the walls are thin between rooms, the lighting is terrible, the bathroom is a tub, sink, tiles and toilet circa 1980 with new taps installed. . . and the wifi is borderline nonexistent.

Great place for international visitors.
We loved Isabella’s house! International clientele and staff spoke English. Charming building. We stayed in the penthouse and had an amazing view, plenty of space and a small kitchen with a microwave, espresso coffee pod machine, and dishwasher. Beds were comfortable. The spacious balcony was the perfect place for breakfast. Great location in a lovely neighborhoods close to restaurants, bakeries, and bars. Walkable to the Gothic quarter, but it’s 2-3 miles. We had a great meal at Isabel’s Restaurant on the first floor.

Great service- room so-so
So this is a good location for getting to everything you want to see or do. It is in a nice neighborhood and really 'in with the locals' area. It is a hike to get to anything though or a cab ride so bear that in mind. Good: Nice space, had coffee/coffeemaker, blowdryer, mini bar, a dining table, full sets of dishes (except oddly only 2 water goblets). Bad: bathroom door did not close, a/c water leak soaked the carpet- though they came in and cleaned it up but then living room a/c did not work, did not refresh coffee supplies (we were there for 4 days) and we had to ask, no place to set anything- pedestal sink, no shelves or anything in bath, bedroom had closet in one and hanger in other but no tables basically, hot water quit at one point but was ok later, WORST part is shower - to turn on you have to get soaked with cold water because you cannot turn on from outside stall and you can lean the spout away but there is not enough room. Then you adjust to get it hot and get scalded because the range from cold to hot is in nanometers. So when someone went to take a shower, this is what you heard: 1. Person trying to close door repeatedly to no avail. 2. Person turns on water. 3. Loud scream or curse. 4. Water flowing for a few moments. 5. Another loud scream at the scalding water. We all took fewer showers to avoid the shower. Finally, I'd add- the rooms are painted black with black out curtains- great for some, not so great for others. Bear in mind. Nice restaurant onsite.

Full apartment amenities in a clean, quiet, safe neighborhood that was out of the tourist area. I got a feel for how the residents of the city live. We easily could walk to affordable bakeries and restaurants, or buy groceries and use the small kitchen. Walk to the metro was short, and just a few stops to Plaza Catalunya. I liked our stay here much more than the hotel we stayed at on Las Ramblas just a few days later, with graffiti and homeless beggars.

Pros: 1. Relatively nicely decorated 2. Location was nice 3. Quirky 4. Apartment style with kitchen 5. First hotel TV in ages that allowed Chromecast! 6. Kindly delayed our checkout for 2 hours for free. Cons: 1. Our apartment was right outside the restaurant which was noisy and very easy for people to see in 2. Some bits were broken in the apartment (likely due to wear and tear) but hasn't been repaired 3. Although fine decoration most things are just IKEA 4. They were going to charge extra for coffee pods for the in-room machine (that should be free) 5. Check-in was slow, we waited ages for someone to come as desk was unmanned. 6. It was a very average standard breakfast for €10

여행하기 매우 좋은위치(지하철역, 버스)가깝습니다. 근처 1km반경내 식당도 좋습니다. 숙박시설은 방2개인 독채아파트 형태인데 깨끗하고 편리합니다. 단지 창문으로 들어오는 소음(오토바이,차량)소리가 크게 들리는데, 밤12시 이후는 괜찮은편입니다

Very nice, perfect position, but noisy
I’ve been there for 3weeks. Very nice and spacious apartment. Perfect location, close to the city center. Kitchen also was ok. Cleaning wasn’t very well the first time, but second time was fine. The main downside is the noice from the street, especially if the window was open.
